Bruh apple doesn't use flash and i suppose the site uses flash, it's a secured device they don't implement any technology that could be compromised easily if it's necessary they'd find a way around it. The sim slot is for data solely. You can gift your device to me for free if your me tired of it. 3 Likes |

Apple products just work. I have had several apple devices and I can tell you hands down, they are the most reliable have I have ever owned. Still rocking my Iphone 6 plus, of 3years while I just purchased the new Iphone 8. The Iphone 6 is still in pristine condition and I heard that they sell for around 100k these days in Naija. That is a lot of residual value for a 3year old phone. How much is samsung galaxy S5 these days(a phone that released same year as my iphone 6). Do people still use that phone? For those comparing iphone to android, isn’t it crazy that you always have to buy a new android every 1.5years for you to continue receiving the latest updates? Now to your experience with the ipad air, have you tried to do a reset of the device? I had a similar issue with browsing https sites, a simple device reset fixed the problem. 5 Likes |

Sometimes i wonder what Apple users enjoy about the apple. A friend lent me his iPhone 6 and under 24 hours, i got tired of it. Its a booorrrrriiinnng device where even if u had internet connection u still need apple id. Dont mess with android, its the best Microsoft killed nokia with the windows mobile. Now they are engaging with the Android Blackberry tried with rim but they are still tapping functions from the android. Even the stupid passport, when i see people holding that phone, i shake my head like these guys and enjoying with a sad face. I see people with apple and i wonder, its just hype, no bigggi I mean forget cost, if samsung made the infinix x551, it would be a hype phone too. Because a common x551 can do far more than some apple devices Na only camera. Abi. For me if u flashing me with ur bloody E.Y.E phone, u on a long thing. Apple is an expensive splinter 3 Likes |

tensazangetsu20: GUI was started by Xerox and Apple used the tech in Macintosh likewise Miicrosoft before it was bought. Apple tried suing Microsoft for using a tech that doesn't belong to them but Gates told Steve, look we both stole it from Xerox. There were full touch phones before the iPhone debutted. Nokia, Blackberry and Palm. What distinguished Apples version from theirs was multitouch. Apple has lost the charm they once had 1 Like |

Taiw:I don't know why you can't access the website on your tablet. But i know there is an explanation for it and im sure majority of the fault lie on the website itself. 2. Your ipad is a tablet NOT A PHONE. Basically you dont buy or supposed to use an ipad to make calls or send sms. The sim slot is there for you to access the internet. Just like your laptop with an inbuilt modem. A tablet (especially the direction the iPad is going towards) is ment to rival the laptop and not the mobile phone. Because some android manufacturers give you the option to make calls does not mean apple is trash. Alot of people which includes me are completely fine with the way the iPad is. If you prefer you tablet to make calls "based on your own preference!" Then simply buy an android tab than ask an ignorant question. 3. File directory(which is not all that needed) came with ios 11 4. It is the prevent sync/sending the wrong type of files to your phone. It could be files with a format the iPhone cannot read or corrupted or virus infected files. Its part of security measure. For the answer to your question. Apple products are always quality and they are the leaders of innovation in the world. Alot(not all) of technology used in the smartphone today where first on the iPhone. This a reputation apple has built over the years even before they announced the first iPhone. Therefore they have earned a surplus amount of praise. Apple is not over hyped 7 Likes |

[quote author=Taiw post=60747096]I cant believe my Apple Ipad air 2 could not open latitudelearning.com to take an assessment. When the site opens, the point when i need to start the assessment is where it hangs. I used safari, opera and google chrome and i even restarted it. I think something is wrong with ur ipad. I use an ipad too and it doesnt hang. Works perfectly. |

UncutSk:The first modern smartphone was the iPhone. First modern smartphone OS was IOS Since then alot of industry firsts has been by apple. They have more industry first than any other company Even if they stop tommorow, they have already built a good reputation But oh! The new iPhones came with AR using just your smartphone, a new portrait mode that changes the background and faceID which is face recognition using new technology, and animoji and a bionic chip on an iphone. All industry firsts. |

Hassan080196:"Samsung price is not that high" Have you bought any Samsung flagship in your life? Or even compare prices? For the records. Iphone X is $999 slightly cheaper than the $1000 Samsung galaxy note 8. You can even say they cost the same. And copy The new iPhones came with AR using just your smartphone, a new portrait mode that changes the background and faceID which is face recognition using new technology, and animoji and a bionic chip on an iphone. All industry firsts. which of these features was on the Samsung already |

PhonePlanet: Common, you are writing false lines. First moden smartphone wasn't the iPhone but rather Nokia First modern OS was WebOS then Meego First smartphone with AI capabilities were Lenovo PHAB then Asus Zenfone. FaceID is synonymous to Iris scanning which are on some Android devices. And Face unlock system have been available on Android since the days on ICS. Apple isn't the first to these things. Pls don't misrepresent facts 5 Likes |
Re: Why Is There So Much Hype On Apple Products by Nobody: 9:07am On Sep 24, 2017 |
PhonePlanet: Why are you fond of writing lies? iPhone X is $999 while Note 8 is $939. With the Note 8, you have the Spen, wireless charger which you have to pay north of $200 to buy from Apple, live focus and other goodies bags. They are both expensive phones while Note 8 is quite cheaper Portrait on iPhone x is live focus on Note 8 FaceID on iPhone x is Iris scanning on Note 8 Did you just write Bionic chip. Common don write like you don't know anything, ain't a smartphone supposed to have a chipset ? Easy with the trash you write dude 3 Likes |
